Gi-Fi
NEXT GENERATION WIRELESS TECHNOLOGY
ABSTRACT:
Gi-Fi will helps to push
wireless communications to faster
drive. For many years cables
ruled the world. Optical fibers
played a dominant role for its
higher bit rates and faster
transmission. But the installation
of cables caused a greater
difficulty and thus led to wireless
access. The foremost of this is
Bluetooth which can cover 9-
10mts. Wi-Fi followed it having
coverage area of 91mts. No
doubt, introduction of Wi-Fi
wireless networks has proved
a revolutionary solution to
“last mile” problem.However, the
standard's original limitations for
data exchange rate and range,
number of channels, high cost of
the infrastructure have not yet
made it possible for Wi-Fi to
become a total threat to cellular
networks on the one hand, and
hard-wire networks, on the other.
But the mans continuous quest
for even better technology despite
the substantial advantages of
present technologies led to the
introduction of new, more up-to-
date standards for data exchange
rate i.e., Gi-Fi.
Gi-Fi or Gigabit Wireless is the
world's first transceiver integrated
on a single chip that operates at
60GHz on the CMOS process. It
will allow wireless transfer of
audio and video data up to 5
gigabits per second, ten times the

develop this technology in the 57-
64GHz unlicensed frequency
band as the millimetre-wave
range of the spectrum makes
possible high component on-chip
integration as well as allowing for
the integration of very small high
gain arrays. The available 7GHz
